Patient Assistance Programs (PAPs) help people who have no health insurance or are underinsured afford medications. PAPs may cover the full cost of medications or provide a discount. The benefits received vary from program to program and each often have different requirements.

If you are taking a certain medication and are unsure if there is a PAP available, you can:

• Utilize PAP Resource Centers.
  • RxAssist
  • NeedyMeds
• Utilize websites that gather current prices and discounts to help you find the lowest cost pharmacy near you.
  • GoodRx
  • SingleCare
• Google your medication's name plus "assistance program" or "savings program".
• Call your medication's manufacturer and ask if they have an assistance program.
• Check the medicare.gov directory of PAPs.
